Tie Fighter in DosBox

Prerequesites

This will work on most versions of Windsows (XP, Vista, Windows 7) & Mac OS X (Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard)

Game CD Required

Key configuration steps

Step 1 - USB Joystick Required

Step 2 - Create a directory to serve as the virtual C drive during your DOSBox session. I usually just create a directory named ‘dos’ and stick it in the root folder of my hard drive. You can stash the folder in your user profile, of course, but typing C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\Dos every time you want to play TIE Fighter rapidly gets tiresome.

Step 3 - Downlowd and Install DosBox

Step 4 - Open the DosBox Options file to make some simple changes:

Run DoxBox Full Screen

Add the following Quick Start commands

mount c c:\dos

mount d d:\ -t cdrom

c:\

Step 5 - Run DocBox. You will see a C:\ prompt.

Step 6 - Install Tie Fighter. Use 'D:\' then 'Instal' without the “'”

Step 7 - To play Tie Fighter, type 'CD TIECD' then 'TIE' (without the “'”) at the C:\ prompt.
